The host had great communication throughout the stay. Smooth check in and check out process and the apartment is in a nice calm neighbourhood. The place was extremely spacious and very clean. Thank you for a great stay :)

10 Min to a lot places to lunch and dinner by bus. 20 Min from train station by bus. Market so near. Good comunication to gold temple and other. House is really good

I'm going to recommend to my friends who are contemplating trips to Japan that they stay here or a place like it. The neighborhood is convenient but also has a sweet, suburban feel. the market nearby is small enough not to feel overwhelming but big enough to have many fun stores to explore. The river is 1.5 blocks away and gorgeous. It was heavenly. The apartment is small but lovely. Ai was very accommodating and helpful throughout our visit. We could not have been happier with this place.

New open! It is a simple but adequate house close to Keihan Line and bus lines, which makes seeing Kyoto a whole lot easier. The house locates in a quite residential neighborhood, it's an easy walk to Kamogawa river, at the same time has a more residential feel. Convenience stores and cafe& restaurants are just nearby.

This place is pretty good value for money and the location is a quick walk away from the subway and bus stop. However the beds were terrible. They were thin mats on a frame with no slats or springs, like sleeping on the floor. They were so hard and we slept badly which meant we were tired the whole time. Also the washing machine was missing from its spot which meant we hand to hand wash our clothes. We had booked at another BnB but less than 48 hours before hand Kohin changed our location to this place. We were travelling at the time so felt we had no option to accept this place, quite far away from where we had planned to stay. We chose the initial BnB because it had a cool location and were disapointed to be moved.

The house is located in chill neighbor, 3 minutes walk from Asukaicho bus station and 7 minutes walk from Demachiyanagi station.
The location is very convenience to the center of Kyoto, sakura spot and 50 minutes to Osaka!

A wonderful house,and the landlord is very friendly and (URL HIDDEN) is also convenient to go to the city center. I recommend this house.

This is one of listings in the Kyoto Traditional House. I have five rooms. It is a loft. The space is small and you can't stand by the window but it is enough space for resting only. My house is made of wood and thin wooden wall, too. We can't set an air conditioner in this room because the roof is died. Don't make reservation if you don't understand home-staying. My old mom and I live in the same house. We are not a hotel.

Riko is a really nice host. Her traditional house is nice too and close to some sites and the other ones are easily accessible by bike or bus. I recommend this place and if I come back to Kyoto one day, I'll surely come back here!

Emilie2015-05-25T00:00:00Z

Location was good- convenient to most sightseeing places. Place was clean too. Only problem is that the walls aren't soundproof, so you can hear others in the house if they're not being quiet.

Elaine2016-12-02T00:00:00Z

I had a nice stay at Yuji and Ami's place. Although I did not meet them, I could ask them questions by mail and they always answered within a few hours. The small room I had was convenient, and I liked the shared dining room, because you can talk with other travellers. Thanks again!

Very convenient location and easy to access. Minimal, but well laid out, and everything worked fine except the internet, which did not seem to be working well the one night. The apartment is located right next to the main entrance to the building, and the window faces the bicycle racks, so you will definitely hear people coming and going and dealing with their bicycles at various hours. It's just off one of my favorite little old-fashioned shopping arcades, where i used to often go for my groceries when i worked nearby. And it's just a moment or two from the lovely river.

Ai's place was well situated to the Demayaginachi station and bike rental, which was helpful for a day trip to the mountains and quick bike rides to the center of town. A nice, simple and tidy place made for a straightforward and pleasant stay.

It's a very big space and even had a little outside area and nice bathroom. It's a short walk to the metro and you can walk into central Kyoto from there if you feel like a nice walk. It is an older property and has a few odours and smells a like a smoker lived there before, but it's not really a complaint as the room is a good price and I would stay again. We had trouble finding it as we were looking out for the property name and the name of the clinic that is opposite, but they are not clearly marked. Photos of the route from the metro to the property would have been really helpful. For awhile we couldn't find the lock box as it looks like a big padlock beside the door so we were a little confused. Thanks for having us we had a good stay!

Violet2017-07-11T00:00:00Z

Apartment is as described. Close to demachiyanaga train station. Being able to rent bikes from Ai was a nice touch. Great value for the price.

The nearest spot is public transport Keihan Demachiyanagi. In the name of the temple is the room (private room). Three single bed and tatami of living. And Japanese garden Yara room, you will see a small amount of Japan's tomb.
It is very serene room.
There is that voice to read the sutra heard from around 6 am

The room has a living room and three bets of Japanese-style look a Japanese garden and Japan grave. Situated in the temple is recommended for travelers who want to feel a very rare Japanese culture

This inn is located in the immediate vicinity of the Keihan Demachiyanagi is the access preeminent to Kyoto city sights

Good place to stay

Cy2017-06-05T00:00:00Z

That is a very nice place

Cai2017-05-20T00:00:00Z

If you are looking for an authentic and quiet place search no more. Located inside a buddhist temple, the place has lots of charm with tatami floors and sliding doors. The place is open on a lovely private garden and the entrance is private. Despite feeling back in time, you will enjoy air conditioning in the summer as well as a wifi hotspot. The place is 25 minutes away from downtown Kyoto with a train station almost in front of the temple. There are lots of very good restaurants within a 5 minutes walk like Katumi (ramen), Elmo (fusion), Zen (izakaya with amazing teriyaki), as well as a bakery for home made breakfast. This is the place I would definitely come back to!

Sebastien 2017-08-14T00:00:00Z

Amazing place to stay and close to underground and bus route into city centre. Well worth the stay and visit. Very highly recommend to anyone

Zack2017-09-07T00:00:00Z

Matsuo was very responsive to my messages. We were picked up at the station and dropped at the house. The house was very clean and was as shown on the photographs. The location is ideal as you can easily go anywhere you want with either a bus or a single metro. And for those going to Osaka the train station is 20 meters away. All in all great house, the host is very responsive and the location is ideal.

Giray2016-09-05T00:00:00Z

We arrived very late (2am) as our airline lost our baggage. This host stayed and met us and helped us track our luggage with the airline over the next two days. The apartment is part of a temple and within a grave yard but not scary at all it's very peaceful-in Japan graveyards are in residential areas unlike cemeteries in the UK- they cremate in this countries so the graveyard are only headstones- don't let this put you off.

Emma2017-04-11T00:00:00Z

The place is well situated to visit Kyoto, in a very calm and relaxing traditional house inside a temple site. Hoping the people will respect the place so it will stay nice like that for a long long time.

The traditional Japanese house.
The price is included bicycle and mobile WIFI .
You could deposit luggage for free at my shop of the closest station before check in and after check out. Its open time is around 8am.

This house was somewhat what we expected. It was an old, traditional, wood Japanese house as one might have seen in old Tokyo before the great bombardment. However, it was not renovated in a long time; beds had modern aparence but were a weird thing with futons on top of hard wood. We have slept on traditional Japanese bedding in other hotels, this was something way worse. The apartment was relatively clean, needs improvement in the towels and sheets chapter. The toilet, positioned at the entrance was modernized but sink drain was almost blocked. The pungent moldy smell reminded me of the outdoor wooden toilets that you can see in peasant villages in remote regions of Eastern Europe. Nice shared backyard. Mind the steel bars for drying clothes, one was dropped on my friends head. Close kehan train station nearby with easy access to sightseeing areas. In conclusion: great for one accustomed with college dorms.

This small 2-story house mixes tatami and western comfort. It has a great location right next to the Kamogawa River. Next to trains, buses, and all sorts of great restaurants, this cozy home is the perfect base for discovering all of Kyoto!

This small 2-story house mixes tatami and western comfort. It has a great location right next to the Kamogawa River. Next to trains, buses, and all sorts of great restaurants, this cozy home is the perfect base for discovering all of Kyoto!
Demachi 2 House is a snug little two-story house. The ground floor has a kitchen with a western table. The kitchen is also equipped with everything you need to do some light cooking, including a rice cooker, gas stovetop and pots and pans, and a few condiments such as oil and soy sauce.
The second room is a tatami room with a low table, where you can sprawl out after a long day and just relax.
The toilet and bathroom (complete with a Japanese style bath and a washing machine) are just past the tatami room.
The upper level has two tatami mat bedrooms, with Japanese futons that you can unfurl at night. There is also a small balcony--with a view of a big temple--where you can dry your laundry if needed.
When you rent Demachi 2 House, the entire house is yours. You will be able to live as if you are spending time in your very own Japanese home.
At the beginning and the end of your stay, we will be there to greet you.
When you arrive, we like to be waiting for you at the house so that we can show you around, explaining everything, and also so that we can help you get oriented around the city. We'll provide you with maps of the city and the bus, and we can mark local shops and restaurants, as well as answer any questions you may have.
This is located in the Demachi-yanagi neighborhood. Just by walking down the street, you'll instantly be at the Kamo River, which is lined with cherry trees, right at its delta where it splits in two, the perfect place for a picnic or some sunbathing.
The neighborhood is just in between Doshisha and Kyoto Universities, so there's lots of great restaurants very close by, as well as all kinds of other conveniences.
You're also just around the corner from the Keihan train line, which runs past Gion, Fushimi Inari, and then heads all the way down into Osaka in about an hour.
There are also several convenient bus lines to take you across the rest of Kyoto as you see all the sights!
It's really easy to get to downtown and Gion, as well as the station and many other areas, from this neighborhood.
There is no smoking in the house or on the street outside of the house, so as not to upset the neighbors. Thank you!

Thank you, Nikki and Clément. And for people who may concern, I write this review after the end of my nine-days Kansai trip, which including staying in 3 different Japanese style houses, so I can have an objective comment for this house. Firstly, this is the cleanest house that we have stayed during this trip. Facilities and quite new and all in perfect condition. Moreover, It is not at the down town of Kyoto but the bus station and subway station both are in a three minutes walking distance from this house. One more thing, Clément turned on the ACs before our arriving, which makes us less freezes. Thanks amigo, we really appreciate it. However, the winter of Kyoto is insane, maybe you can consider to upgrade the AC. All in all, this is the best guest house I have lived recently, I highly recommend this house for you. If you are planning a Kyoto trip, just book it.

Guesthouse Billiken ShinAoibashi”, a 50-year-old traditional Japanese wooden townhouse which has a Japanese garden. Easy access to Kyoto station by Bus. Bus stop is just in front of our guesthouse. 3min walk to World Heritage Shimogamo Shrine (下鴨神社) and Kamp river (鴨川). You can enjoy Sakura blossom(桜) in Spring and Daimonji(大文字) Fire in summer. 3 min walk to supermarket and convenience store. --Comfortable and Simple Japanese Tatami double room (Japanese futon). --Capacity of each room is 2-3people (※Maximum capacity: 9 people in 3 rooms. But normal capacity is 4 people in 3 rooms) --This room is on 2F, in Machiya house. --Narrow Stairs: this house is traditional Machiya House. Staircase is very narrow and steep. Please keep Big suitcase in the locker box on 1F. --Check-in: 17:00~22:00 / Check-out: 12:00 Before checking in, you can put your luggage in this guesthouse.

We really enjoy the days here. The Japanese-style house is clean and modern, all things you need is included. If you take a bus travel around the Kyoto, this house is just near the station, cannot be more convenient.

I will definitely say that I am super regret I only reserved a one-day stay. It's a wonderful house full of Japanese style. The space inside is comfortable and convenient. I will come back again once I come to Japan.

The location is very good, suitable for walking, you can enjoy the shuttle in the streets of Kyoto, feel the Japanese folk life. Bed and Breakfast is very close to Daejeon Shrine and is a 20-minute walk from Kyoto Imperial Palace. Pilgrimage gate is the bus station, from the subway is also particularly close, you can choose any mode of transport to visit the attractions, is very convenient. The owner of the house is very enthusiastic, we recommend to feel the Japanese folk Tanabata night market, and they open the big boarding restaurant dishes taste particularly good. The house is a relatively traditional Japanese architecture, the room is very clean, living facilities are complete, you can experience the traditional Japanese style, is our free exercise in Japan, the process of hard to forget the good experience!

This room is large enough for 4 person.
Sunny, quiet, and comfortable.
This room is not Japanese style.
Because, Japanese style room has much tick.
each region has each tick.you get used to your tick.
but you can not get used to Japanese tick in short trip.
there is few tick in this room.
I wash all bed clothes each time,
I do wash pillows.
This room has good sanitary.

this room fits for the guest whose purpose is experiencing Kyoto.
1st:
I think that many tourists are disappointed in Kyoto now.
Cos, they only visit places introduced by Lonely Planet and the net.
Tourists rush into the such place introduced by ghost.
The disappointed guest will never visit Kyoto again.
I am hoping that guests will come back to Kyoto again.
I think this is my mission.

Fabulous place A great attentive host What more can I say?

Firstly, thanks a lot for host's gift. This room is very good. It is enough for four people and it is convenience for traffic and restauarant. If we have chance to come kyoto again, we will book this room again. Of course, we will recommend this room to our friend. The host is really a kindhearted person, who makes a good arrangment. By the way, this room is good.

Mr. Takata LOVES Kyoto, and he wants all of his guests to love Kyoto too. He is a fountain of Kyoto wisdom, and an enthusiastic guide. I have visited Kyoto many times before, but Mr. Takata adds dimension. He wants us to experience what I call, "deep Kyoto". His knowledge kicks in where guidebooks falter.

This is the 2nd floor of a 15 years old vegan restaurant. You will go through the restaurant to go up to your cozy room. It is one of the most unique and welcoming atmosphere in Kyoto!!
Please note that this place is for guests who love meeting people and are willing to share there travel experiences.
Restaurant open from Mon - Thu 11am - 4pm.
No shower, there is a public bath(sento) right around the corner. It is the most local experience you can get around here!!

Above a vegan restaurant that opened in Kyoto in 2006. This is a cozy simple room that I rent out on the 2nd floor. I am the owner of the restaurant during the day.

Yumi's place was perfect for our stay in Kyoto. The flat is quite small but very comfortable & cozy, and represents excellent value for money. Yumi is lovely, and did everything possible to make our stay comfortable & warm. Kyoto is a wonderful place, and I'm very glad to have chosen to stay at Yumi's place.

Want to live a tatami, so chose this home. The room is a bit hard to find, Japan has no house number, and finally rely on a photo to the door of the building to find the room. The interior is well furnished and has a Japanese style. The network is fine. No washing machine, causing some minor trouble.
